Thank you.

2. Wow.... Just looked up to see who this women is...

"As a U.S. Intelligence Asset, Susan Lindauer covered anti-terrorism at the Iraqi Embassy in New York from 1996 up to the invasion. Independent sources have confirmed that she gave advance warning about the 9/11 attack. She also started talks for the Lockerbie Trial with Libyan diplomats. Shortly after requesting to testify before Congress about successful elements of Pre-War Intelligence, Lindauer became one of the first non-Arab Americans arrested on the Patriot Act as an "Iraqi Agent". She was accused of warning her second cousin, White House Chief of Staff Andrew Card and Secretary of State Colin Powell that War with Iraq would have catastrophic consequences. Gratis of the Patriot Act, her indictment was loaded with "secret charges" and "secret evidence." She was subjected to one year in prison on Carswell Air Force Base in Fort Worth, Texas without a trial or hearing, and threatened with indefinite detention and forcible drugging to shut her up. After five years of indictment without a conviction or guilty plea, the Justice Department dismissed all charges five days before President Obama’s inauguration.

Lindauer has written a book Extreme Prejudice: The Terrifying Story of the Patriot Act and the Cover Ups of 9/11 and Iraq about her experience."

4. Um.... you think having mental health issues precludes one from being rational?

Wow.

5. QUESTION IS:

Are we a Nation of Laws? Or a Nation of Men? Or is the US Constitution still relevant? Calling names is hardly what we need right now, this is serious.

8. No, but being mentally unfit to stand trial does. N/T

10. Reply from Susan Lindauer

Hey guys-- Thanks for checking me out! The Democrats should pay attention to what happened to me. The GOP savagely invented a whole slew of amazing stories about me--- anything to stop the public from investigating what I had to say about Iraqi Pre-WAr Intelligence.

I was, after all, the chief CIA & Defense Intelligence Asset covering the Iraqi & Libyan Embassy at the United Nations before the War. Everything the GOP told America was a lie. We had a peace option on the table that would have resolved the whole conflict. A year before the invasion, Saddam Hussein was willing to retire to Tikrit.

What's poor Georgie Boy to do! If you're corrupt & weak, you arrest your political opponents & throw them in prison without a trial. You destroy their reputations with incredible lies.

Don't worry. I'm tough as nail-- or I could never have been a Covert Asset for the CIA & Defense Intelligence for almost 10 years, starting in 1995 under the Clinton Administration. Still my favorite President!

I'd be so grateful if one of you would post this in a thread on the National Security. Democrats should know this. (The American people already do). You're the hold outs!
